RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT<\/h2>\n

According to Ayurveda, there are two major disease conditions, that are similar to Rheumatoid arthritis<\/em><\/a>\u00a0(RA<\/em>),
\n1. \u0935\u093e\u0924\u0930\u0915\u094d\u0924
\n2. \u0906\u092e\u0935\u093e\u0924
\nBoth the above mentioned disease conditions deal with sandhi (joints) related pathologies. In vatharaktha, the raktha and vata get vitiated by the nidana and finally manifest over joints. Were in amavata, the ama formed in koshta will be taken and placed in joints and finally get manifested as Amavata.<\/p>\n

The Ayurvedic management for the above two conditions are:-<\/h3>\n

1. Langhana
\n2. Samsodhana
\n3. Samsamana
\nBy all these therapies the already formed ama dosha will get removed and further formation will be prevented. Then the existing inflammation and joint related conditions will be treated with Ayurvedic Aashaadha\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Langhana :<\/strong>
\nBy this the rasa, raktha and ama dushti got corrected.<\/p>\n

Sodhana :<\/strong>
\nIt is the removal of accumulated dosha from the body by using panchakarma therapies.
\nThe poorva karma includes snehana and swedana and for sodhana virechana or vasthi will be done according to the condition.<\/p>\n

Samana :<\/strong>
\nThe already vitiated doshas are purified by sodhana, but after that, the rest of the doshas has to be corrected and pacified in order to avoid further accumulation and disease recurrence.
\nAlso, follow pathya ahara and pathya vihara.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
